“For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty forever beyond its reach.” J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

St. Boniface and the First Christmas Tree
“The First Christmas Tree,” by Henry Van Dyke, published in 1897, tells the story of how St. Boniface, the Apostle of Germany, put to flight the pagan god Thor and set up the first Christmas tree. It is a good story to reflect upon and give us courage in these dark times, when the devil is having his hour.
